At first it was a little rough for me.. I'm not good with anesthia so I got sick. I'm down almost 34 pds and thurs will be 6 weeks. My only problem is trying to get all my fluids in.. Honestly it changed my life ! It's deff hard at first but it's all worth it in the end

To me it was deff worth it! No draining tube! That day I was up and walking with no problem feeling good the problem I had was the anesthia made me sick so I was puking because I never handle it good with any surgery . With me puking it was causing pain in my stomach so I was at the hospital a little longer then the usual stay. If your ready to really work hard it's worth it it's not something that jus fixes the problem u deff have to work for the results but at the end of the day being healthy is what matters. I know for me I've been heavier for a while and being 19 with that problem doesn't feel so great! So I've finally started to feel good about getting healthy and doing what's right and I'm shedding the pds

I was only suppose to be there two days but I kept getting sick off the anesthia and puking so they kept me longer until it finally wore off and I was okay. When I was pukin it was putting strain on my stomach and it started to hurt . It usually doesn't happen but in my case it did because I can't handle anesthia

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
